I'm delighted that you enjoy the blog, and hope you enjoy making some of the patterns here. If you have any questions, please ask! I have several tutorials on my flickr site that may also be a help to you.

Hi Beth,I'm still in the process of completing my doll, but just wanted to pass on to everyone that I used the empty socket of my rachet screw driver to press the back of the safety eyes in place. Be sure to put the eye through the eye whites, if used, and place through the completed head as directed, placing the front of the eye on something soft to protect it. Put the washer on the back of the eye, set it in place with a little hand pressure, and then use the rachet to set completely. Takes seconds. Carolyn

You can also print the eyes i think cos thats what BJD doll makers do with their doll eyes.. Love your dolls and has made 2 forget-me-knot kids.Clothes Im working on right now... Made top,miniskirt, underpants, dress and a longvest. Don't know how to choose name here so anonymouse will do Warm thanks for pattern, Ancie

About Me

Welcome! My name is Beth and I live in the Midwest of the United States. I was 12 years old when Neil Armstrong stepped foot on the moon. I would have been an astronaut, but my fear of heights has kept me grounded :-) Instead, I became a Mechanical Engineer and worked in industry for many years. Now I design and make soft dolls; a passion I've enjoyed since my Grandmother first taught me to crochet.
